An analysis of different concepts of “identity” in the heritable genome editing debate
Human heritable genome editing (HHGE) involves editing the genes of human gametes and/or early human embryos. Whilst ‘identity’ is a key concept underpinning the current HHGE debate, there is a lack of inclusive analysis on different concepts of ‘identity’ which renders the overall debate confusing at times. This paper first contributes to reviewing the existing literature by consolidating how ‘identity’ has been discussed in the HHGE debate. Ess…
Maternal epigenetic responsibility
This paper examines the construction of maternal responsibility in transgenerational epigenetics and its implications for pregnant women. Transgenerational epigenetics is suggesting a link between maternal behaviour and lifestyle during pregnancy and the subsequent well-being of their children. For example, poor prenatal diet and exposure to maternal distress during pregnancy are linked to epigenetic changes, which may cause health problems in th…
Reinterpreting “genetic identity” in the regulatory and ethical context of heritable genome editing
Heritable genome editing (HGE) is prohibited by several international conventions for a number of reasons, including the protection of “genetic identity.” This article provides a conceptual analysis of the concept of “genetic identity” and offers normative reflections as to how it should be interpreted in the context of HGE. In particular, this article examines the purported right to retain “genetic identity” and the right-to-know “genetic identi…
